About the trip
Hosur is an industrial town just across the Tamil Nadu border, home to large automobile and electronics factories and a growing residential area. Most trips are for work, family or shopping, but the town also has a hilltop Shiva temple, a lake and quiet countryside around Thally. The drive on NH 48 via Electronic City is short, though traffic at the city edge varies.
What to see in Hosur
- Chandra Choodeswarar Temple
- Ramanaickenkere (Hosur Lake)
- Kelavarapalli Dam
- Thally hills
On the road
NH 48 via Electronic City and Attibele; the toll road is quick outside rush hours. Leave before 8 am or after 10 am to avoid the Silk Board crawl.
